Steps

1 hr 35 min

1

Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and flour a 9 x 13 pan.
2

Place 1 ½ tablespoons lemon juice in a measuring cup. Top to 1 ½ cups with milk. Set aside.
3

Mix together mashed banana with 1 tablespoon lemon juice, set aside.
4

Beat together butter, brown and white sugar until combined. Add in eggs one at a time and vanilla. Mix on high until light and fluffy (almost the texture of frosting).
5

7

Remove from oven and place in the freezer for 45 minutes to make the cake extra moist. Cool completely before frosting.

Frosting:
Cream together butter & cream cheese until fluffy. Add in lemon zest and juice. Add powdered sugar a little at a time until you reach desired consistency. Spread over cooled cake.
